The How

Open the index.php file that came in the sNews download package and find the following bit:

<div id="crumbs"><?php breadcrumbs(); ?></div>

This is the function call that brings in the breadcrumb trail on your pages. What we need to do now is to change that bit so that it is not called in on the home page. Like so:

The Code

<?php if(!empty($categorySEF)) { ?>
<div id="crumbs"><?php breadcrumbs(); ?></div>
<?php } ?>

And that is really all we need to do. Well, we need to save the changes of course. :P  But code-wise that’s all that is required. When you now view your website you will see that there is no breadcrumb trail at all, not even an empty <div id="crumbs"> loitering about, on the Home page, but there is indeed a nice breadcrumb trail on all other pages. Mission accomplished.
